Automatically wrapping a primitive type in a wrapper class object. For instance if you try to add an int value to a list, it will automatically be converted to an Integer object.

Abstract Method
A method that only has a declaration and no method body (no code inside the method).

ArrayList
An ArrayList can hold many objects of the same type. It can grow or shrink as needed. You can add and remove items at any index.
New cards
4
Add
You can add an object to the end of a list using listName.add(obj). You can add an object at an index of a list using add(index,obj). This will first move any objects at that index or higher to the right one position to make room for the new object.

Declaration
To declare an ArrayList use ArrayList

6
Creation
To create an ArrayList use new ArrayList

7
Get
To get an object at an index from a list use listName.get(index).

8
Index
You can access and set values in a list using an index. The first element in a list called list1 is at index 0 list1.get(0). The last element in a list is at the length minus one - list1[list1.size() - 1].

9
Remove
To remove the object at an index use ListName.remove(index). This will move all object past that index to the left one index.

10
Set
To set the value at an index in a list use listName.set(index,obj).
New cards
11
Size
Use listName.size() to get the number of objects in the list.

Wrapper Class
Classes used to create objects that hold primitive type values like Integer for int, Double for double and Boolean for boolean.

Unboxing
Automatically converting a wrapper object like an Integer into a primitive type such as an int.
